Hakonechloa macra 'Alboaurea' AGM | ||||||||||||
Golden Hakonechloa, Golden Japanese forest grass | ||||||||||||
|
||||||||||||
A stunning, deciduous grass that does very well in both sun and light shade. Produces lush clumps of arching, cream, yellow and green, narrowly-striped foliage that catches the light in a breeze. Flower racemes on slender stalks appear in summer, followed by delicate seeds heads. I have not found it to be at all invasive and it is a valuable addition to the garden. The seeds on offer are unlikely to come true, but may produce some interesting specimens - worth a try! Plants were until recently available, but I've now sold out due to popular demand! I hope to have more soon. | ||||||||||||
